FYI people who watch the speech are extremely skewed to people who like trump already so polls of speech watchers are basically meaningless.

He gave away the game tonight. He wants public-private partnerships in his "trillion dollar plan."

Thank God Eisenhower had the foresight to give us the interstates. That way, when the toll roads fall into disrepair from lack of use (because if there was money to be made they'd already be making it) we'll have something else to fall back on.

more or less

the bar is so low that if he doesn't try to pick a fight, rant about how unfair people are being to him, or advocate something blatantly illegal, idiot people are willing to go "maybe he's improving?!!!" and give him a pass

tomorrow or the next day he'll do something incredibly lovely to remind everyone that he's a toddler

he's talking about when trump used a dead soldier's widow as a prop, of course.

TBH grover's obsession with vaping only makes him more weird and likable in my book, like Newt's obsession with zoo animals & Moon colonies.

In the other, better, timeline Grover is known as a vaping lobbiest/innovator & Newt has a successful show on Animal Planet. Trump is still filming The Apprentice

Alas we aren't in that timeline :smith:

The media needs a normalized Donny narrative because it is literally unequipped to deal with the reality that:

1) The president is taking orders from a foreign rival.
2) The president's number two guy is a straight-up Nazi.
3) The president is in a constant state of violation of the emoluments clause and is using his position to profit to a cartoonishly absurd degree.

CNN, MSNBC, Fox, all of them, cannot actually deal with these realities (though admittedly, a few people at MSNBC do a decent job). Their market model essentially forbids it.

And also, it's worth pointing out that if the news media has trouble articulating the most dire aspects of Donny (Russia, Nazi sympathy, and being a complete sell out), it probably has an even harder time discussing the normal awful Republican stuff he shits out on a daily basis. Bing bing bong bong, EPA's gone. Have fun choking to death on unbreathable air on a planet being slow-cooked.
